Valoisamman tulevaisuuden puolesta : YK:n yleiskokouksen täysistunnoissa sekä toisessa komiteassa käydyt keskustelut kestävästä kehityksestä vuonna 2…
2010
Kestävä kehitys oli ollut kansainvälisen yhteisön toiminnan päämääränä 1970-luvulta lähtien. Ilmiön taustalla oli kasvanut huoli ympäristön tilasta. Asiaan otettiin virallisesti kantaa ensimmäisen kerran Tukholman ympäristökonferenssissa vuonna 1972, jonka jälkeen vuonna 1987 kestävä kehitys konkretisoitui käsitteenä niin sanotun Bruntlandin komission raportissa seuraavalla tavalla: "Kestävä kehitys on kehitystä, joka tyydyttää nykyhetken tarpeet viemättä tulevilta sukupolvilta mahdollisuutta tyydyttää omat tarpeensa". Käsitteestä tuli tämän jälkeen suosittu kansainvälisen yhteisön keskuudessa. Kestävän kehityksen edistämisen yhtenä pääarkkitehtina voidaan pitää YK:ta, joka järjesti monia k…

The carbon footprint of a knowledge organization and emission scenarios for a post-COVID-19 world
2021
Publisher Copyright: © 2021 The looming climate crisis requires an immediate response, in which organizations, as major contributors, should play a central role. However, these organizations need appropriate tools to measure and mitigate their climate impacts. One commonly applied method is carbon footprint analysis. Carbon footprint analyses have been conducted for various types of organizations, but knowledge organizations, such as universities and research institutes, have received far less attention, because their carbon footprint is often less visible and can be easily underestimated. This study is based on the carbon footprint analysis of one multinational knowledge organization. This…
Creativity and Innovation in Technology-Mediated Journalistic Work : Mapping out Enablers and Constraints
2020
This qualitative study examines creativity and innovation in dispersed, journalistic teams. Specifically, we study the factors enabling and constraining creativity and innovation in journalistic work in technology-mediated settings and explore how technology shapes these phenomena in dispersed journalistic teams. The study is motivated by the media industry’s heightened need for creativity and innovation as well as the changing nature of working life where an increasing amount of work is done via information and communication technologies. By closely examining two journalistic teams and their idea sharing and development processes, this study finds that successful creative work and innovati…

Mapping the Idea of Europe : Cultural Production of Border Imaginaries through Heritage
2021
In contrast to recent reinforcements of Europe's internal and external borders due to the refugee situation on the Mediterranean and the Covid-19 outbreak, talk of European borders has in the past decades focused on the freedom of mobility guaranteed by the Schengen treaty. In many senses, free intra-European mobility has become a recited truth in the EU discourse: a phrase that hides under its repetition the gap between its implied content and empirical realities of many of those who are affected by European borders’ exclusive tendencies. Through the concept of borderscape, this article focuses on the role that cultural products – especially maps exhibited at heritage sites – have in recit…
Sourcing on the internet: Examining the relations among different phases of online inquiry
2021
This study examined students’ engagement in sourcing throughout online inquiry, that is, when they specified the information need, formulated search queries, evaluated online texts, and composed a written product. Participants were 167 upper secondary school students. Students completed an online inquiry task in a restricted online environment that utilized authentic online texts. Students’ prior topic knowledge and reading fluency was measured and controlled for in the analysis. The results showed that students engaged in sourcing even in the earliest phases of online inquiry. A sequential regression analysis indicated that the more frequently students engaged in sourcing in specifying the…

Enabling Sociability When Using Virtual Reality Applications : A Design Science Research Approach
2019
Immersive virtual reality applications aim at providing an all-encompassing spatial experience where a user can feel like being in another world or dimension. The systems are inherently designed for individual use as the devices disconnect the user from the physical environment. However, the applications are seldom used alone. Specifically, when used for sales and marketing, the user often needs help from other people but also benefits from social interaction as a part of the experience. Design research methodology is applied to three iterative development versions of a virtual-reality application. The focus of the evaluation of the artifacts is in the social use emphasizing three sociabili…
Adaptive Number Knowledge in Secondary School Students: Profiles and Antecedents
2019
Cited By :1 Export Date: 10 February 2021 Correspondence Address: McMullen, J.; Department of Teacher EducationFinland; email: jake.mcmullen@utu.fi The present study aims to examine inter-individual differences in adaptive number knowledge in secondary school students. Adaptive number knowledge is defined as a well-connected network of knowledge of numerical characteristics and arithmetic relations. Substantial and relevant qualitative differences in the strategies and expression of adaptive number knowledge have been found in primary school students still in the process of learning arithmetic. We present a study involving 879 seventh-grade students that examines the structure of individual…
